Courage
We are moving forward and making a difference, let’s be courageous, have the courage to challenge the status quo both internally and externally
Empathy
Be alongside each other and our service users, no one ever helped with a sentence that started with “well at least” Wilderness Tribe CIC is non profit Wilderness Therapy provider based in Cheshire West and North Wales. The reason we set up was due to increased social isolation, burn out and suicides in men. From lived experience our directors and facilitators have all had their own struggle with Mental Health and found their rest-bite and medicine in nature. This lead to the team designing an invention and community that will support men in their time of need and beyond. Our 8 week Everyman Programme is currently funded and is free to attend. We hope as we grow our commercial offering and volunteer network that it will provide the funds and resource to continue to build the tribe across the United Kingdom.
